#Patriots rookie WR Tyquan Thornton underwent surgery Monday to repair a fractured clavicle, per source. Recovery time should be 6-8 weeks from the procedure but could vary depending on healing and re-acclimation to football. 2nd round pick still set to help offense this year
New England Patriots rookie receiver Tyquan Thornton is expected to be out for six-to-eight weeks after undergoing surgery on Monday for a fractured clavicle.
